PAHRUMP, Nev. (AP) -- A Nye County sheriff's detective says a pizza delivery driver in Pahrump made up a story that she had been robbed, including the detailed descriptions that led to composite sketches of two men.
Detective David Boruchowitz said 27-year-old Keri Rush was arrested Tuesday after an investigation of her report that two men took money from her and ran away about 8:45 p.m. Monday in the Comstock Park area.
Rush was booked at the Nye County jail in Pahrump on felony malicious prosecution and misdemeanor false report of a crime charges.
Detectives say they believe Rush stole the money to pay a drug debt.
